Never Do Enough

Never Do Enough

You will never do enough for some people in this world
 cause there being blinded by sin, self & Satan
 just be the best that you could be
 you take out the garbage & fold the clothes
 pick up the phone to hold your own
 people are just set in there ways getting lost in a purple haze
 not to mention being politically correct
 Your best wish is to forget we even met
 you socialize with those who are blind
 in the end they will be left behind
 they can't help you cause they can't even help themselves
 maybe i should put that book right back on the shelf
 but you got to be happ with yourself on the inside
 the god of this world is a thief comes to kill & destroy
 be best to pray like a good girl & boy
 we must stand against the social resistance
 watch the lies & how Satan twists it
 never do enough in a fast paced world in a rush
 these are delicate times
 yet we settle for ill but faded rhymes
 we push ourselves to the extreme
 living in a land so very mean
 you want to get to the top but the top of what
 eternity is such a long time so don't go around blind
 back up your words with scriptures
 you will see in time you will shine if you don't break the faith
 call it what you will some believe in fate
 life is a rollercoaster but it doesn't stop
 many folks want to pretend there a cop
 do this don't do that can you read the signs
 getting caught up in a bind
 if you learn their lies you'll end up being very blind
 life is made up with choices some have settled with their Royal Royce's 
 stick with God cause he'll take you far
 this is something they will never teach you at your neighborhood bar...
